Obama Has Finally Proven that He Is an Anti-Semitic Pro-Palestinian Pro-Iran-Terrorist Betrayer of America and Its Democratic Values

I am outraged. The despicable, anti-Semitic, pro-Iranian/shiite supporter who will be leaving the US presidency in a shambles in 28 days has used America's UN Security Council seat to permit the adoption of a resolution condemning Israeli settlements. The Obama ambassador abstained for the United States. The resolution was adopted Friday afternoon with 14 votes in favor and the US abstention. The resolution calls Israeli settlements “a flagrant violation of international law” that damage the prospects of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the critically important US abstention during the UN Security Council vote clears the way for the world body to condemn Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem. The adoption was greeted with sustained applause. • • • This marked the first time in more than 36 years that the Security Council has passed a resolution critical of settlements. The United States’ abstention reflects the Obama administration opposition over settlement growth that they consider an obstacle to peace. Barack Obama's position is based on pure anti-Israel sentiment and revenge against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's daring to disagree with him about the Iranian nuclear deal -- another Obama catastrophe that also highlights his pro-Iran pro-shiite anti-semitic political position. • • • President Obama came under withering criticism in the last couple of days as the resolution weaved its way through the Security Council. • Morton Klein, president of the Zionists Organization of America, the country’s oldest pro-Israel organization, said : “Obama has made it clear that he’s a Jew-hating anti-Semite. He likes Jews who are his friends but not Jews in general. Obama is sticking it to the Jewish state of Israel.” • Incoming Democrat Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer said he strongly urged the White House to veto the resolution : “Whatever one’s views are on settlements, anyone who cares about the future of Israel and peace in the region knows that the UN, with its one-sidedness, is exactly the wrong forum to bring about peace. I have spoken directly to the Administration numerous times...and in the strongest terms possible urged them to veto this resolution. I am strongly opposed to the UN putting pressure on Israel through one-sided resolutions. An abstention is not good enough. The Administration must veto this resolution.” • Democrat Senator Kirsten Gillibrand also said the White House should do everything it could to kill the resolution : “I call on the Administration to do everything in its power to make sure this resolution is not put forward or passed." • Republican Senator Lindsey Graham called the vote a “provocative action by the United Nations” and said that if the resolution passes, he could work to reduce assistance to the UN. • Representative Lee Zeldin, a Republican, urged President-Elect Donald Trump to cut all aid to the Palestinian Authority. Zeldin said : “This is an anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish, anti-Israel resolution." • World Jewish Congress President Ronald Lauder said : "We urge the United States, Israel’s greatest ally, to veto this text. It is counterproductive, and does nothing to enhance the role of the United Nations in resolving the Middle East conflict.” • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu began a flurry of diplomatic maneuvers and even reached out to Trump to enlist his support. That led Trump to tweet on Thursday : “The resolution being considered at the United Nations Security Council regarding Israel should be vetoed.” The scheduled Thursday vote was postponed when Egypt withdrew it after President el-Sissi spoke by phone with President-Elect Donald Trump. But, four other countries on the Security Council -- New Zealand, Malaysia, Venezuela and Senegal -- sponsored and introduced it. • • • Rumors in Washington suggest that Republicans in Congress will move to stop the $600 million in aid the US provides to the Palestinian Authority, now that the resolution is approved. And, shortly before the vote, several US senators said that if it passed they would introduce legislation to cut off US funding to the United Nations and to any states that voted in favor of it. Richard Grenell, a former spokesman for US ambassadors to the UN in Republican administrations, said the stakes are too high for Obama to be on the sidelines : “The Obama team is playing politics at the UN as they walk out the door. There is little regard for the consequences of their anti-Israel actions. It’s shameful." • • • Dear readers, Barack Obama likes to hide his real positions on issues by citing "international law." But, international law supports the settlements -- so does an earlier UN resolution. And, truth be told, what is "international law"? It is whatever the strongest nations choose it to be. It is the law of the victors, as the world was warned at the Nurnberg trials. It is today, for example, Obama's brushing off of genocide in Syria; it is his do-nothing attitude about Christian annihilation in Iraq and in areas of the Middle East held by ISIS or other jihadist groups; it is his silence about grevious violations of human rights in Myanmar and Tibet, and his refusal to meet with the Dalai Lama; it is his shunting aside of Iran's violation of his own deal with it by testing nuclear-ready ballistic missiles and hiding its nuclear work from the UN watchdog agency. Why is "international law" the law of the strongest? Because there is no one but the strong to enforce it. Therefore, it depends entirely on their good will. • If Barack Obama would make his case by saying that he supports international law because it represents a fundamental and widely-agreed human notion of ethical conduct or moral norms -- then we could have a dialogue. But when he is using "international law" to spitefully punish Israel for trying to preserve its borders and defend itself against a barrage of Hezbollah and Palestinian missiles hurled at it daily, and when he assumes that, despite all their decades-old pretexts to avoid negotiating, somehow removing the settlements will suddenly bring the Palestinians to the bargaining table -- he is dead wrong. The resolution, if it were to be carried out, would only give the Palestinians and Iranian-paid Hezbollah a better vantage point from which to increase their bombardment of the sovereign nation of Israel. • Now is the time to explain the facts of international law to the UN and its Israel-baiting anti-Semitic sycophant members who attack Israel with America's money. No more UN funding except for programs the US Congress and President Trump agree to. No more foreign aid to any nation or group that voted for the settlement resolution, including permanent UNSC members Britain, France, China and Russia,unless the resolution is re-presented and defeated. No more foreign aid or military support for New Zealand, Malaysia or Senegal. Above all, no more aid of any kind to the Palestinians. That is the realpolitik of international law and it is now time for the United States to show the UN -- and Barack Obama and his globalist Progressives -- what it really means.
